Man, that's crazy, bro, I think, but like I said, I just believe it. At this juncture, Bro, we are just tremendously like, we are tremendously gullible, bro, And we've never been that this gullible. So let me ask you so we can agree now that we're gullible, how we get here? Bro? Like, why do you think we so gullible? Outside? We got the insta gratification, But why else you think we so gullible? I really don't know, man, Like. I just said, you know, the insta gratification, the not passing down the traditions and the history. I really don't know now how we got to this point where it's just like I don't know. People like like you. Got to think it is country, you know, being in education, how much people do not care. But these kids do not care about education, do not give it. Damn go to school just to get babysit because momy don't want to deal with you. Just to get babysit. That's what you basically, because you know I'm in elementary, just drop them off in school just because you I don't want to feel like dealing with them. It's probably some parents now because we're on summer break. Mad than the motherfuckers. They got to deal with their kids, talk to them. I don't, man, I can't answer that question because I don't know why we got how we get got to this point in history, Like. And it's just like I don't know. It's like everybody wants somebody else to do the work for him instead of man, let me go, you know, look up for myself. I want somebody else to do the work for me. I don't know, man, I really can't explain this question. I can't really, I really don't have an answer how we got here. Hey, Bro, it's gonna sound crazy, Bro, but I think it has a lot to do with they gonna get They're gonna get They gonna get mad. Bro. Everybody's gonna get mad, but we here, so we might as well. The decay of the decay of our traditional family structure, Bro, the decay of the family structure. Bro. Uh. Men, you know we talked about women being big mamas and talking and making talking videos and ship. The men are out of place, Bro, and the men have gotten Man, it got soft in the motherfucker man. Like we solved, Bro. We didn't got solved. Bro. Like we didn't get soft and when we grew up right. Yeah, the swindlers and and all of them folks, Bro, they couldn't come around with that bullshit when it was a man around. Bro. Think about that, bro, like like it couldn't like you got them swindlers and ship that used to that are come around your house trying to hustle the women folks and all that. Because the swindlers always got to try to go to the women folks, you feel me. The men folk with men, they had jump on, they had jump on somebody, Bro, like a man to jump on you, bro, bringing that bullshit around his house trying to sell, trying to sell something and so on and so forth. Think about the salesman. Remember when the salesman back when, like the insurance salesmen and all that kind of stuff, when they would come around, you know, when they came around. Think about when they would come around the salesman during the day. Where was daddy at during the day that worked, you feel me? Because they was trying to have access to the woman in the thought process, And this is all me speculating, Bro. I ain't done no no historical research or nothing on this. So this is all. This is all, This is all me. This is just the way my buyd works. But they come around and so the salesman wants to sell the woman on something, you feel me, so that then the woman can you that influence on the man. But they but they want the woman to fall in love with the meccan, So they gonna go sell to the woman and get the woman to influence the man in order to make the sell or get her to get her to buy before they even the man can even get back and do it, you see what I'm saying, and close the deal before. But it was always during the day, during the soap operas and shit, when the man, what's their work? The man has been out of the man is out of place, bro, Like I don't I can't even tell you what we're doing. Bro. I know, mass incarceration, I know, you know a job this, you know, displacement. I know a lot of men don't feel you know, have have not with the women's liberal liberation movement and and and and feminism, especially the black feminism movement, which I think Black feminism is bullshit, But that's a whole other conversation. You feel me, But with all of that men have become extremely disc you feel me, and with us being extremely docile, we in turn become gullible in being docile and in not being studied and not being and not being aware of things and ultimately following the lead of that woman. And being in elementary school. Man, what I see with these little boys, a lot of them. You can tell the little boys that have no male role models or figures in their life. And I say that people like, yes, you can't tell, you know, I just want little boy third grade, he arguing with somebody, clapping his hands, and I'm like, dude, it's so feminine as you saw it, Like you've been around your mom a lot. That's what your mama do. Or little boy heat one girl coming heat, rolling his eyes and stuff. I'm looking like, yo, man, you can tell, like, do you have no male. Figures in your life? Then these boys grow up? They can't control their emotions. They grow up, And that's what that's like. I tell the parents all the time. Man, you need to get on this now. So I had a boy in my class. Man, it's tardy, and it was March. We had to meet. He was twenty eighty times the school year by March like every day. Told the mom about it. Mom was like, oh, well, he don't like to get up in the morning, so he gonna be late. And I'm just sitting there like, wow, man, you that see well, I ain't. Saying it's just single mother, but that wouldn't fly in my house with my mom and my mom when you know, my parents divorced when I was like eleven, my dad was still a run There was a man in that household. Man, get your ass up. You gotta teach them right now. You can't go to you got a job. It's like, oh no, I don't feel like y'all start working too early. Y'all get here when I fucking get here. And it was just it was just here, like just seeing the stuff and these boys and how emotional they are, how they can't control their emotions, how they don't understand, you know, they fly the DZ and crash out so quick, and it's just like, wow, man, it really has changed. Like you can tell the ones that don't have no male figures in their life. And eventually those are I'm telling you man, those the. Ones that get like we said, you know, he didn't listen to no authority when he was in school, get out in the street, police pull him over. He talking back, mouth and novel this and that. Either they gonna beat his ass or he gonna I hate to say the hashtag. Then you want then you want us to go in march for this little boy, knowing that he didn't listen to no authority figures anyway, No matter what it was, you saw the pattern. And I tell my kids all the time, you know I do with kids that got IEP's, I tell them all the time. Here in the school, you. Got adults that care and teachers. They ain't gonna do nothing to you because they ain't trying to lose their license. But go to that store up the street talking crazy to somebody. You don't know what a person is going through that day. And we stand your ground because still carry state. And you talking crazy and walking up on a man. Dude, you're gonna be a hashtag, that's what you understand. Because they ain't gonna care about your IEP. They don't care that you've got anger issues. Everybody has anger issues. You gotta learn how to control yourself. You can't be gonna talking crazy to people, man and walking up on people. And then then he never did nothing. Nobody he nah, You never told him. Hey, man, you need to try to to explain him about life. Control your emotions, especially as a man as you get older. I feel like being in education, especially in elementary, I feel like they coddle the boys too much. Especially it's okay at the lower grades. When you get up to like four or fifth, sixth grade, you gotta start teaching these boys. Man, listen, man, the world ain't gonna give it down. You ain't feeling good, and you ain't feeling well. I mean, go all kids, but bestly young men. Did nobody care. Man, you got a job. You gotta go do your job. Then when you get off work, you can deal with that. No one cares that you ain't feeling good. Don't one cares. You know, you gotta do things. Man. I just see, like, I just see a bunch of coddling this, and it's affecting the young boys in the class, you know, in that generation. And the crazy thing about it, though, is is you know the way we grew up, bro, like school was my job. Like your dad worked hard than the motherfucker and school was my job. And he told me that every opportunity school was my job, bro, Like school was my job, you feel me? So I had to so, like you know, doing well in school was not optional, you understand, Like that wasn't an optional. It wasn't optional. Going to school and being a problem, having behavior issues and shit in school. That wasn't even in the equation. Bro. That wasn't no ain't no way, Bro, you know what I mean? Because there was structure and there was discipline more so than that. My father had an expectation to me, Bro. And we played my my your junior year, my sophomore year, we had a basketball game. We were playing Belmont I believe it was at Meadowdale. And I had I had got into the IB program. That was the first year they did the IB program, and I had got in it, and I got I got miss Miss Burrows, Virginia Borroughs gave me an F in English, Like she gave me a zero and a final exam and gave me an F in English. She didn't like me. That's a whole nother conversation though, And uh so, anyway, she didn't. I think she didn't like me, because I shouldn't say that, Bro. I'm talking to you though, Bro, Her son was a scrub man. He was he was. Her was a scrub bro. And I don't think she I don't think she liked me because her was a scrub bro. You feel me and ours and you know we was you know, as a sophomore, I started at varsity, y'all. That her was gone by the end, though, But her was the scrub man, and I think that was I think she had beef with all the football players because her was a scrub. Bro. But anyway, hey bro, hey man, this this this is a thought cast, bro. This is the this is the this is the coachure collective. Man. We're gonna tell the truth. Bro. But anyway, she gave me an f man, and so uh, I ended up. I got my daddy got that report card right, And so my father at school was my job. So on every nine, like what was going on with the IB and the and the uh the program was you know JANKI at first and all that kind of stuff. Bro. My father walked in the gym and we were playing the game. So I was already kind of like my daddy was wasn't there on time? So we were in the game. It was like the it was like the end of the first quarter down there, I think it was my father walked in the gym and his workship walked out on the floor and told coach who at that time, who was who was my coach? Was the coach Graham? I think told the coach, yeah, total call time out. Coach talked call time out. My father looked at me and said, go get your shit. In the middle of the game, Bro, stop. My daddy walked out and stopped the game. I had to go get my shit, and he came. He said let's go, and I had to walk out the gym in front of everybody. Bro. I had to walk out to gym and my daddy just man, I had a F on my report card. That's the only F I ever got. Bro in K through twelve, but the only F I ever got on a report card, and my man, my father said, shit to me, Man, that was piercing. Bro. It was that school is my job. Fuck everything else, fuck the sports. Fucking school is your job. And the man and the thing that you never want to hear from your father, Bro, as a young man, I'm disappointed in you. I don't ever want to hear that, Bro. Man, that pierced me Bro. That man said he was disappointed, like, Man, I'm disappointed in you, like you ain't even doing your job. You ain't handling your business. Man, I'm disappointed in you, said damn never man, ms Bro's got out for me, man, because her was a scrub, Like I got to f on my report card. Bro, I guess the hey man salute to herb Burrows, and I ain't got no issue with her, Man shout. Out, that's time. I said. Yeah, he had his hair, alle He's like a little Columbian drugs lord. Last time I saw man, Yeah, he was all alone. Man. You know you that waiting ship. So you know, I ain't thought in a long time. Man. Yeah, he looked like one of the Simon and the Simone and wrestler something. I ain't seeing her in forever. Man, shout out to her. I don't fuck the miss Burrows, though, to this day you feel me. I used to get the newspaper and she wrote that article. I used to x her face out, draw devil's devil horns on her and stuff like that in the newspapers. Burrows. Man, she tried, she tried to, she tried, she tried to take a real nigga out of here. Bro. You feel me. She tried to take a real nigga out. Man. You know that's the kind of stuff that make a mother fucker drop out of school and sell drugs. Bro. Yeah you feel you know. Yeah, but I think that. But school, school was our job, man, and we took school. You know, we took it seriously. Bro. Plus the other thing about us though, bro, like it was the back end of our father and whatnot. But we had if you really think about it, brouh, we had a ball in school, Bro. We had a ball in school. School was fun, bro. Schools And what thing I've seen being in education now, that's different. When we're in school. They don't police each other. You know, if you had the football team, somebody was acting silly on the team and class, hey man, chill. Out, Bro, you know you need to get your work. Bro. You know, they don't do that. It's like they follow they just follow whatever. Man. Like you could have a kid that done sixteen to eighth grade and they'll follow him like he's the coolest thing, and it's like, hey man, and no shame about it. It's no shame. No. You know. I feel like today's generation man, they're ashamed of nothing but a barrister everything but ashamed of nothing though. And it's like it's it's different though, I said. Men in education, I told young boys asking me. I was like, man, you gotta it's nothing. You gotta get out your mind. How it was when he's in school. Get out your mind that I tell a kid, I'm gonna call your mom, call your dad, and you straighten up them. I'll call him. I doubt the number for you because. Most of the time a number wrong anyway, And when you call them, it's like it's it's not effective, you know, it's it's it's it's different than me. Man, how I don't know how we got to this point. It's just so different, man, it's no effects. Some of them kids that got the ips, they no, oh, he can't flunk me so I can get the bearest bears, meloy. You know, we got a lot of kids. We got kids in the third rate on our tidy Shoe's just crazy to me, man, our tidy shoe can't A lot of these kids can't read, you know, they can't, right, And it's just like wow, man, it's like it's going on. It blows my mind every time, like, wow, these these these are the ones wh when nurse a home taking care of us. Man, I just really, I just hope I just drop dead. Man, I don't want to be a nurts own. They don't kill you anyway because they don't give you the wrong prescription. Can't read. Man, I ain't even man, the quality of of of workers. Man, it's just plummeted, Like yeah, it's stupid, Bro. They stupid, like these people are are not intelligent and they don't even try, bro, And they don't even try. So man, let's let's wrap it up. Man, I have you in here over hired. Man. I don't want to do this till you. Bro. So I just think, uh, give me, give me any of your closing thoughts. Bro. I don't, man, Man, I feel like just tell the people, man, do the research for yourself. Start looking up, like really like study, do the research for yourself. Don't take somebody's word for it, man, Some people don't. Everybody don't have your best interest in mind. So do the research for yourself to understand if you want to get anything. Like me, I've been on this spiritual thing about you know, learn about religion and stuff. And learn on your own and learn learn the truth. All y'all need to understand what's in God is in you. You need to awaken it. Yes, indeed, I think for me, man, my closing thoughts is just on us as a collective with regard to you know, being gullible. It's just just to piggyback on what my brother just said, like you got to do your own research. And there is no shortcut, like, nobody has the shortcut, There is no magic. Like if you think about historically and you think about how we grew up, think about all of the stories where there was a shortcut, right, you always ended up in some bullshit. Jack had the magic jumping beans, his ass ended up up the beans, start with a giant trying to cut his head off. You see what I'm saying. Like a Hansel and Gretel ended up with the witch and she trying to eat them. You know what I mean? Like every time there is a shortcut, you always end up in some shit. And that is a that is a direct a storyline. In real life, there is no shortcut. And I know it sounds good. And just because somebody talks good and they talk fast and they talk quick you have to worry about what it is that they're hiding. Don't look at the hand that they're showing you, look at the hand that's behind their back. And I'm gonna tell you this, and I'm gonna give y'all some game and give you some news you can use. Anybody that can make one hundred thousand dollars in one month is not on the internet teaching you how to make one hundred thousand dollars in one month, like something like go ahead, bro, my fault. How about say it's just like trickle down economics. Well, if you get the billing, there's all these task cups, they'll create more jobs. No, they just want they got put more money in the bank. They want to do. Yeah, they're gonna they're gonna put more money into research and development and figure out how to eliminate more jobs and to get slimmer. There's nobody that is going that knows how to make ten thousand dollars a day. They are not on the internet selling you a course for ninety nine dollars on how to make ten thousand dollars a day. Those people who do know how to make ten thousand dollars a day are busy making ten thousand dollars a day, And they are so busy making ten thousand dollars a day or one hundred thousand dollars a month. They are so busy doing that that they don't have time to create a course to teach you how to make one hundred thousand dollars in a month, nor do they have the desire to show you what they do in order to make one hundred thousand dollars a month, because if they show you that, then the value depreciates. You understand what I'm saying. So part of the reason why they're able to make one hundred thousand dollars a month is because there are not a lot of people that know how to do what it is that they do. And if there were more people who knew how to do what it is that they do, then it wouldn't be one hundred thousand dollars a month. They would be shooting themselves in the foot. So today's lesson boys and girls, men and women, brothers and sisters of the culture. In order to avoid being gullible, and for us to continue to stop this gullible condition that we have, we have to realize that there are no shortcuts at times, it just comes down to hard work, dedication, and in the words of farmer Dre, you have to take time. It takes time. You're gonna you want tomatoes, It's gonna take time. It's gonna take time. Tell the people how they can follow you again, Bro. They following Drake Clark on Facebook, Big Bad Dre seventy seven on Instagram, Drake Clark Comedy. If someone someone had to lose a dra Clark comedy on ex Twitter, I'm gonna stabs attack Drake Clark Comedy and Instagram. Drake. Uh, I gotta think about my TikTok one. I'm gonna TikTok to just put Drake Clark in there and I probably pop up. We're gonna get him together family, We're gonna get him off streamline. We're gonna get We're gonna get my streamlined and everything. But I don't like I said, man, And to go back what you're saying. The people that sells the course, to sell the courses to show you how to make money. That's how they make their money by you come to their course. That's it, and that's how you fun in their lifestyle, buying it buying the dream that they selling. That's it, man. And then any you have any any shows that announced, any shows coming up? Uh, I'm working on some stuff now. I've just been relaxing this summer. I've just been relaxing, recharging, you know. But I'm get back. I'm gonna have some shows that I'm trying to get my own show together again. Do that again, and I'll let everybody know. Yeah, I still do the comedy.
